I was trying to install winnt4.0 but I keep getting disk space error. It complains about not having a swap space during installation. I deleted the partion, created one active partion of 2gig and formatted. I created and used the install disks, but it hungs up after 3rd disk. Any ideas?

What is the file system on that partion?
What happens after 3rd disk? Like the rror message, or so...

Try deleting all existing partitions with win9x or linux fdisk. Then use the partitioning program in the NT setup. If you wish to create the partition using. Windows 9x fdisk, ask no to the first question.
If you plan to use windows NT only, you can choose NTFS (in the NT setup partitioning program)
